Det Uudslukkelige
An indelible cologne - do I even want that? Isn't this like Michael Ende's mud muffling? Well, somehow a permanent freshness has something, of course, at least I don't appreciate Laliques 'White' for nothing. And indelible Acqua-di-Parma header notes would also be a good idea.
But first I had to think spontaneously of one of my favourite symphonies: The No. 4 "Das Unauslöschliche" by the Danish composer Carl Nielsen, written during the First World War, was an homage to life, vitality, the will to live. Such a title is a great demand on the tone presented below, which the work certainly fully does justice to. The timpani duel in the final movement is singular.
Hm... Pretty lordly to put such in relation to a cologne, which... Well, how is it then?
A lot of 4711-Neroli opened, in short almost sharp-cutting in appearance. A few splashes of harsh stem green, in direct transition to the narcissus, quickly join in. Thus the overall impression for me quickly turns away from grandma's brocade doily on the WC cistern (the good old '4711' was originally with her!). The narcissus spreads a rather austere freshness, which would fit perfectly to more sedate ladies - which is by no means to be understood negatively. Could again be owed to Ropion's alleged approach to lifting old school florality into the present.
The softening ingredients play a decisive role here: The orange blossom appears after a slow quarter of an hour already softly creamed. I feel the musk responsible for it to be green rather than white, which means the freshness seems to me less laundry than botanical. The daffodil seems to be making her mark on him, too. And as a bonnet of originality, after a good hour there is even a hint of an almost cinnamon-like spice over the fragrance (perhaps petitgrain?), as if the orange...
No, I'll start differently: An indelible Cologne will last until Christmas at the very least, even after a certain amount of marketing eye pressure has been deducted. And that's why today's orange may have garnished itself with a trace of eugenol. A tribute to the sibling fragrance 'Noir Epices', which evokes an offensive Christmas?
That certainly led too far, after all, orange blossom is more like orange blossom than orange. And in combination with the musk she turns the scent a bit more towards laundry towards noon, but undoubtedly a noble botanically scented one. Cologne Indélébile' is therefore simply more dignified than, say, the 'Puredistance I', which is similar in its appearance, so to speak "formally".
Not much happens any more: throughout the afternoon there is citrically dabbed cream, as it is not too difficult to imagine in the interaction of neroli, orange blossom and musk; from below there is a tiny amount of artificial wood. That is pleasant, soft and well wearable especially for ladies, now without restrictions of all ages up to the very young. And of tidy durability overall, though not exactly indelible.
From the habitus of the rear 80-90 percent of the fragrance, I finally refer to the original Danish title of the symphony, which, like many Danish words, sounds friendly to our ears, almost cute:
Det Uudslukkelige.
I thank Gerdi for the rehearsal.
